Dedicated to the public. Worst storm in a long time and the staff braved it the day after the shut down to help feed people who had not prepared well. Great experience. Power went out half way through but that didn’t stop them. People ordered under cellphone flashlight ambience and drank good margaritas. A+ for effort and dedication to it local clientele.
i loved the whole thing about the place, it was amazing and the food was great. i went on valentine’s day so the place was romantic.
By far, the best Mexican Food in Houston
The food was really good & the spacing in the dining area was fine, but I’m not sure if they were short staffed or what, but the service was really slow. Slow to bring drinks, slow to refill waters.... ate so many chips that I ended up taking half my meal home. Hadn’t been there in forever so was looking forward to the treat, but left disappointed.
Return visit. Same super service and wonderful food. Definitely a favorite place to dine out.
Drinks, seafood and chicken mole tacos were outstanding. The chips, salsa and combo plates were average.
This was our first time visiting and we wont be back. The noise level was off the charts. Could barely hear the person sitting across from me. Food was lackluster and we rarely saw our waiter.
Valet guy was creepy and acted weird and said weird things he tried to steal money from me. Table of 3 screaming kids dressed very casually should NOT be at armando’s
Always great service and the best margaritas in town!
My order came with overcooked meat. I mentioned it to the server and he said he'd mention it to the manager. I heard nothing from the manager and I was charged for the meal. Very disappointing given the good meals that I've had there.
We love Armandos!!
Always fabulous!!
Wine selection was not good by the glass or bottle. The dinner was very blane in comparison to our many other visits.
Thursday night is special because they have a DJ and the place is lively... I do like their Tilapia plate which is filling and healthy..... He also has a place in Round Top , Texas which is pretty causal but the same quality of food.. Supposedly they are opening another restaurant in the same shopping center on Kirby which should be nice except for parking... Well see.
Great Tex Mex and margaritas!
Always love a trip to Armando's! Friendly and superior service. Reasonable prices. Food was good, though could have been warmer (we were the first table seated at 6pm).
Armandos is always spot on. Love it’s food and staff!
The best Tex-Mex & margaritas in Houston!
Think we had a new waitress. She asked how I wanted my sea bass cooked & forgot to turn in one of our orders so he ate after we were all done. If you’re looking to social distance not happening here but do enjoy going. Great DJ!
Great food and atmosphere. Not too noisy
Waitress and hostess did not greet us. Did not know my waitresses name. Got order wrong
Armandos never disappoints, it is always excellent!! You have a diner forever. The food, the service, always sit at the bar. Again Excellent.
So much fun. Delicious Tex Mex and great ambiance!
Christmas with our family and friends! Superb!
My husband and I have been eating at Armandos for several years. We have always enjoyed the upscale Mexican dining experience and in the past the service has been very attentive and the food has been pretty good.
The last few times we’ve been there have been enough to make us decide that we are not going to this restaurant anytime in the near future. When we were there a couple of months ago they ran out of Cointreau so they couldn’t make a decent margarita. What kind of Mexican restaurant would ever allow that to happen?
Then the last time we went it took 30 minutes for our waiter to come take our order and when the food arrived the rice and beans were literally cold. The service and Quality have gone downhill and I will cut them some slack because I’m sure they’ve lost employees and customers since Covid but if they want to keep their regulars they need to step it up.
This was not a great experience and for the Price point I feel we should have had much better experiences.
Too many other places with good Mexican food and margaritas in this town to keep punishing ourselves.
Dined at 6:30 so it was not very busy. Very slow service. Seemed very unorganized.
The service was haphazard and server unfriendly, otherwise all else was perfect.
Another wonderful dinner at Armando’s. The food, the service, the ambiance was fabulous. Have been many times and will continue to go back. I recommend Armando’s to anyone looking for great Mexican food.
absolutely NO social Distancing even Armando was walking around with no mask. Packed with no open tables and bar head to head. Only parking is valet.
Armando's is a family favorite, we often go for special occasions. One tip, though. The "Rib Eye Enchiladas" is not enchiladas with rib eye steak in them, it is a stand alone rib eye and some ground beef enchiladas on the side.
Outstanding experience! Would recommend Armandos to anyone.
Great dining experience! They have Mexican wine which is great!
We were surprised by just how many people were jammed into this place. Tables were so close to each other and the group of guys next to us were literally yelling the entire time. Service was great. Our server was very nice and attentive. The food took a while to get and the enchiladas seemed like they had been sitting under a warning light for a bit. The beans were great though.
Good food , great ambiance and the service was excellent. Our server was excellent as well. Will definitely come back and would recommend.
Service as great, but they brought the wrong food for my boyfriend. The fish tacos used to be great but this time they were average
Too many tables booked per Covid-19 restrictions-
We eat here all the time and we were shocked at the proximity & number of full tables
Armando's is always consistently fabulous - the food, service and drinks. Highly recommend.
Armandos never disappoints. Surprisingly, for the first time ever, we had a minor issue and the Management staff took very good care of us! Customers are valued at Armandos.

Why ask if it is a special occasion if you’re not going to acknowledge it as such?
